"Vision is a destination - a fixed point to which we focus all effort.
Strategy is a route - an adaptable path to get us where we want to go. "
Simon Sinek
The quote is that Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast, or lunch, or some other food related time of day. The truth is a strong culture, as far a growing and maintaining a business goes, requires a strong, clear, defined and adaptable strategy to guide it's direction. That said, even with that, culture can prevail. Set you and your company up for the best chance of success.
Without a plan how will you know where you are going, what the destination is and what the end point is. How will you know when you arrived? It's a get in the car and just drive kind of plan. A good strategic plan is the foundation of everything you are trying to build. It sets the pathway, goals, accountability, action plan and the impact you want you and your company to create in the world.
